  • Kleene and Vesley's [1965] gives a careful axiomatic treatment of intuitionistic analysis, a proof of its consistency relative to a classically correct subtheory, and an extended application to Brouwer's theory of real number generators.

    Intuitionistic Logic Moschovakis, Joan 2007

  • If the theory PA plus all T-sentences proved an arithmetical sentence φ not provable in PA, then a finite subtheory (with finitely many T-sentences) proves φ.

    Axiomatic Theories of Truth Halbach, Volker 2007

  • But the finite subtheory can be relatively interpreted (translated) in PA by interpreting T by an appropriate partial truth predicate; the arithmetical vocabulary is not affected by this interpretation.

  • But without any evidence this is pure speculation on my part I might be inclined to think a subtheory might be true:

  • Now consider a theory T which formalizes ideal mathematics and its subtheory S which formalizes real mathematics.

    Hilbert's Program Zach, Richard 2003

  • However, the direct relationships support the basic In addition, the longitudinal approach allowed for previous needs subtheory [13] of self-determination theory, which levels of study variables to be controlled.
